Acts 19:1-10
I started off in this study of the book of Acts in the year 2000 and I called it Power2000. I ran on into 2001, so I had to change it. I’m now calling it the PowerBook.

If I should ask the question—how many of you are Christians? The majority of you would probably raise your hand. As you understand, it is more than just professing you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior—do you possess the reality of a born again experie ...
